To make a long story somewhat short, Nora is a long-time friend of my good friend Shelby. They met while both studying in Germany as exchange students during high school and have remained great friends ever since. (I can't even begin to name off all the languages they know how to speak- its truly incredible!)

Nora spent this past fall semester in the U.S. studying at Purdue, and visited Shelby here in Minneapolis a few times. She wanted a nice photo to give to her parents in Norway, so we found some time during her last visit. Here are a few favorites from the shoot.
